downloads question (1 Viewer)

Hi

just upgraded to the latest 0.22 version, BBC iplayer works great - thanks!
I also tried downloading bbc programs this works great, replay allows but i have a couple of questions (apologies if this has already been asked)

I it possible to have more than one download running at a time?

When a download starts there is no indication on the screen that it is proceeding or when it has finished; the only message i get is if i try to download the same file again, i get a message that a download is in progress - could you implement a current downloads list, like media portal TV application has, which shows current recordings.

Once a download is started can i exit online videos and watch TV, or do i need to stay in the online videos menu?

thanks for a great plugin!

There is a current downloads list -> it is in the Downloaded Videos Site (last in the list). It has a category named current (Only visible while downloading something!). There you'll see the ones that are in progress of downloading. Some will show a progress, depending if the size is known (in case of BBC not IIRC).
You can download more than one, but don't overkill your connection and MediaPortal itself.
All downloads run in background, you can do anything in MediaPortal, just not exit the application

Thanks

I found the downloads list but didn't see the current downloads section (it had obviously finished!)

thanks
